halfords fitting service

Advantages: nice allways aviable customer service
Disadvantages: but after any damages you can`t find anybody to took to you.

I`ve took my car to halfords tooday to fit the new speakers in. My car is a vw passat new shape. i`ve asked them if they know how to remove the door pannel to get them changed. they told me that yes they know. I`ve been told to come back after an hour. when i came back they told me that they cant replace it. The side pannel has been sticked back in. the result of that was`t good. the fitter said that the clips has been broken cost of 1 pound. I ...
...200£. they will ask their head office and will let me know if the costs of repair will be paid by halfords. I have a bad fillings about that. I wont recomend the halfords to enybody else. If they dont know how to do the job, they should`t even tray. ...

Garages and repair centers in Scunthorpe

Advantages: good service honest staff
Disadvantages: a little bit out of the way

Garages and repair centers in Scunthorpe After reading another review it has inspired me to put a few words together about this topic. I have found over the past years as a consumer and a proud car owner that our local garages are becoming more and more untrustworthy. I own a Ford Focus and as I have said I love the car and I am very particular about who works on it. I have had one bad experience after another trying to find a local garage that ...
...have used a number of the large main dealers and small garages alike but I still find myself struggling as there seems to be no personal service anymore and you seem to be getting less than ever for your money. I work on the steel works in Scunthorpe and I was introduced to a local garage recently with a different quality of service all together. A company called fst automotive as they are a member of the good garage scheme there standards are ...

national breakdown

Advantages: Quick and friendly service
Disadvantages: My cover was not good enough (but free)

...repairs I called the National Breakdown. I was covered through my insurance company (Dial Direct)for free so I gave them a ring. The first number I called was my insurance company, but they put me on to the right number. Three minutes later, having answered half a dozen questions, I was told I would be seen within the hour. Forty minutes later a breakdown wagon arrived from a local garage, the mechanic found the hose that was at fault and removed ...
...coverded for road side assistance so he could not go and get a part for me. But he gave me his mobile number and sasid he would return to fit the part when I got one. This is what I call service, quick, no hassle and helpfull. As it happened I managed to fit the new pipe myself so did not need the mechanic to return, but the offer to return was much appreciated ...

Review of National Motors garage, Fishponds, Bristol

ridiculously false failures

Advantages: It's in banbury
Disadvantages: Everything else

...trouble's) I took it to NATIONWIDE AUTOCENTRE in Banbury. i knew it would fail on a couple of things he told me needed doing, but not to the extent of a 'ballpark' figure of £800. Needless to say, i thanked them for the thorough 2 hour M.O.T. and went on my way. I then went to A.T.S. in banbury, (the 'A' stands for awesome in this case) to query the failure on the tyre, to which they assured me wasn't a failure! I then spoke to my friend about the ...
...£800. PLEASE stay away from nationwide autocentres unless you enjoy paying top price for unnecessary work. Going to go back to N.A. today to demand a refund on their mot, trading standards will be notified. P.S. i do apologise to all the people that think this is a rant and not a review, but if you had been lied to by a garage, who then tried to steal nearly £700 off you. You too would perhaps rant and even rave a little. P.P.S. I have a life, this ...

Review of Nationwide Autocentre

Slow response times

Advantages: price
Disadvantages: do not bother to check that their contractors can really attend in times they give

Joined Brittania through CSMA as price was good. Used them twice in 2 years and each time they took 2 hours to arrive. Both breakdowns were in populated areas which were easy to get to and neither were in peak breakdown periods. Problem seems to be that they use contractors who basically will lie about how quick they can get there so they get the job. each time I was told help would arrive within the hour, but Brittania don't check with customer ...
...them twice each time. They subsequently sent me a satisfaction form to complete but failed to respond in any way to my comments regarding service. I did not renew for a third year as I see no point in saving a few pounds if they are so poor when you actually need them ...
